Empress Renisha has lost her parents, her family, and been cast out of the imperial court because she married a mad emperor. Now there is only one thing for her to do. Revenge.... more>>

In preparation, she chose a new husband and ally but...... the more she looked at this man, full of vitality like a flame, the more she liked him.

"You know how to play pretty."

Was there ever a woman who could sway Kassius, the war hero, like this?

"I'm going crazy."

Kassius was not expecting this. He hadn't expected the seemingly stoic and noble Empress to be so vulnerable and sometimes endearing. <<less

A War Without Casualties.... more>>

The Republic of San Magnolia has long been under attack from the neighbouring Giadian Empire’s army of unmanned drones known as the Legion. After years of painstaking research, the Republic finally developed autonomous drones of their own, turning the one-sided struggle into a war without casualties-or at least, that’s what the government claims.

In truth, there is no such thing as a bloodless war. Beyond the fortified walls protecting the eighty-five Republic territories lies the “nonexistent” Eighty-Sixth Sector. The young men and women of this forsaken land are branded the Eighty-Six and, stripped of their humanity, pilot the “unmanned” weapons into battle…

Shin is the leader of a squadron of eighty-sixers. Lena is a “handler” who commands the detachment from the remote rear with the help of special communication technology.

The farewell story of the severe and sad struggle of these two begins! <<less

Jin-ah dedicates her life to caring for her stepmother. ... more>>

One day, a peculiar lawyer pays her a visit, revealing the unfortunate news of her grandmother's passing and his intention to claim the inheritance as per her will.

The stipulation for the inheritance is that Jin-ah must ensure no one enters the mansion she is set to inherit.

Deeming it a manageable task, she agrees, securing the funds needed to make a fresh start.

Everything progresses smoothly—her business thrives, and her relationship with the once-strained stepmother deepens.

However, this harmony is short-lived when her stepmother embezzles funds and disappears.

In the midst of financial turmoil, Jin-ah is approached by strangers expressing a desire to film her grandmother's mansion, seeking her permission.

She rejects their proposal, as it is the only way to continue receiving monthly payments from the trust.

Subsequently, an arrogant and shallow man waves money in front of her, making an audacious proposition.

"With your permission, I'll give you a few more of these. One for every time we film the mansion, how about that?"

After refusing with profanity, Jin-Ah forgot about their existence.

That is until the police contact her, reporting an unauthorized entry into the mansion, resulting in a tragic accident— one dead and four injured.

Upon her arrival at the previously unvisited mansion, the rescuer makes an unsettling declaration.

"No! There's one more down there! There were six of us!”

***

"I understand that you think I'm weird. Until last year, I would have been an as*hole who believed in the money and the power of the family and did whatever the f*ck I wanted.”

It was such a perfect description that Jin-ah didn't need to add anything.

“I guess you could say that Kno-Dearg Manor gave me a new lease on life because I felt the need to change a lot since then."

The man, now an uncannily different person, extended his hand to Jin-ah.

"Consider the old Lan Isford dead.”

***

"I want to eat.”

I want to eat that.

So, I approached and grabbed her.

My stomach churned at the sight of the person looking at me in surprise.

Regardless of whether there were people around or not, I wanted to swallow her whole, leaving not a single strand of hair behind.

I carefully smelled it.

Mine. Something for me to eat.

My tongue, which had been suppressing hunger, eagerly twisted in the mouth filled with something sweet.

But then I found out.

That she tastes better on the inside. <<less

“….Krische-sama, are you not afraid of killing people?”... more>>

“……? No. After all, it doesn’t hurt Krische.”

Although gifted with the talent to do anything with ease, the girl lacked empathy.

In her world, there is only loss and profit. No goodwill, no love.

Inhumanly recognizing cold, mathematical logic as everything, she looks at everything in the world through calculating lens.

Return given profit with profit, loss with loss.

The girl was undoubtedly pure, yet undeniably abnormal—

Her favorite things are cooking, food, and being pampered.

Her specialty is mu*der.

—- This is the story of a slightly unhinged girl being surrounded by kind and loving people, and her journey to find happiness. <<less

Western VRMMO【DEMONDAL】was known for its extremely harsh game system. To begin with, there were no levels. There were no skills. There were no guilds. There was no inventory. There were no convenient system messages or maps of any kind either. It was so needlessly realistic that it was already basically a VR life simulator.... more>>

As for anything game-like, it was basically limited to weapon masteries; a proficiency level that you got from using your weapon, as well as physical strength that increased as well. That was it.

It was a fantasy game so there was magic, but forming a contract with a spirit was extremely difficult, and only 1% of the playerbase were magicians.

In this VR game【DEMONDAL】that was ridiculously close to reality, the protagonist Kei who was a well known mounted archery expert, was one day sent to another world with his Russian【DEMONDAL】friend.

The game that was severe to begin with had turned into a reality, and the harshness increased again―― <<less

Mia Luna Tearmoon, Princess of the Tearmoon Empire, muttered to herself as she stood shackled on the execution platform.

The faces of the spectators surrounding her were, without exception, filled with indignation.

Before long, Mia was executed at the hands of the revolutionists, who were fed up with the heavy taxation.

But the next moment, she unexpectedly found herself lying on her bed.

It was eight years ago, when she was just a mere kid.

For a while, Mia even wondered if she was hallucinating. However, what appeared on her bedside table was a bloodstained diary that she had written herself.

That day, Mia's screams could be heard echoing throughout the palace.

Mia was not a vicious person by nature. She was simply incapable of understanding the pain and hunger of others, and by the time she discovered it, it was already too late to do anything.

After she regressed back to her childhood, Mia struggled hard to trace back the events of the past with the help of her blood-stained diary and memories.

Was it to save the future of a declining empire?

Was it to save the soldiers who died in the civil war?

Was it to save the people from famine?

No, she had only one goal.

To avert her fate of facing the guillotine (execution)! <<less

“Out of these three abilities, which would you like to have?”... more>>

A standard question and answer on internet forums, people of leisure indulge in such fantasies.

What would you do if it were genuine?

━━

I killed a human being.

Remarkably, I don’t even care.

I could never be a protagonist.

The opposite of a taker is not a taker.

It’s the giver.

That’s the protagonist.

A hero.

If I can’t be a hero.

If I can only continue to be deprived.

If I can’t be a giver.

I should at least be a “taker”ー

Minase Ginji did not pray. Instead of praying, he chose to kill.

His research in graduate school was indeed epoch-making, as he was able to reconstruct the heart and the entire “circulatory system” as an artificial one.

He saved many people, was admired by many, and the world “recognized” him.

…That was supposed to happen.

His research was easily deprived of him. In the end, he was expelled from the university because “he” stole it from his “professor”. Abandoned by his parents, he found a silly thread when he was in dire need of food for tomorrow.

It was not nonsense.
But he had so much time to spare for nonsense that he was sick and tired of it.

Compared to the heavy responsibility of saving the world, the villainess Amelia is a cold and beautiful woman with silver hair and purple eyes. As long as Ifia can deal with this rich woman, she can happily live a carefree life.

Later on, Ifia successfully captures Amelia’s heart. She was held in the arms of the villainess and kissed, preventing her from destroying the world. Then, seeing the devil’s horns sprout out of her head, she finally understood the system’s language trap.

One day, Kouta noticed that there was another student who was killing time at a certain seat at a certain time, just like him. Her name was Kazemiya Kohaku. She was a celebrity at Hoshimoto Gakuen High School, where Kota attended. She had the same beauty that rivaled that of the popular idol sister, but unlike that sister, she was a cool beauty who kept people away from her.

Although they were both aware of each other's presence, they never came into contact with each other. One day, however, when the restaurant was crowded, Kouta happened to be shown to a seat next to Kohaku. Furthermore, a phone call came in from his family member. When he finished that call, Kohaku started talking to him…

“...Narumi, are you also having a hard time staying home?”

“Hey, we're surprisingly......” “We're very much alike. In more ways than one.”
